Members, this Message relates to the nomination of Secretary to the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC). Hon. Members, I wish to notify the House that I have received a letter from the Chairperson of SRC requesting this House to approve the appointment of the Commission Secretary. In her letter dated 8th June, 2015, the Chairperson conveys that in exercise of powers conferred to the Commission under Article 250(12)(a) of the Constitution, and in accordance with Section 16(1) of the Salaries and Remuneration Act, 2011, the Commission has nominated Mrs. Anne Rwamba Gitau for appointment as the Commission Secretary. Hon. Members, Section 8(1) of the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, 2011, requires the National Assembly to consider the suitability of the nominee within 14 days from the date on which the notification of nomination was given, in accordance with Section 5(1) of the said Act. In this regard, I wish to guide the Committee and the House as follows:- 1. The Committee should notify the nominee and the general public on the time and place for holding the approval hearings in good time. The notification should, therefore, be made immediately. 2. The Committee may thereafter commence the necessary approval hearings and should submit their report to this House within the time contemplated in the law. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
